GREATER CAMBRIDGE SUSTAINABLE DESIGN and CONSTRUCTION SUPPLEMENTARY PLANNING DOCUMENT (SPD) CONSULTATION STATEMENT (Town And GREATER CAMBRIDGE SUSTAINABLE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION SUPPLEMENTARY PLANNING DOCUMENT (SPD) CONSULTATION STATEMENT (Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 (Regulation 12)) 1. Introduction 1.1 Under Regulation 12 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 it is a requirement to prepare and make available a Consultation Statement setting out: • The persons the local planning authority consulted when preparing the supplementary planning document; • A summary of the main issues raised by those persons; and • How those issues have been addressed in the supplementary planning document; 1.2 This statement is a record of consultation undertaken prior to the adoption of the Greater Cambridge Sustainable Design and Construction SPD. 2. Background 2.1 The Greater Cambridge Sustainable Design and Construction SPD has been prepared to assist with the implementation of policies related to climate change, sustainable design and construction and wider environmental policies contained within the adopted 2018 Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire Local Plans. 3. Preparation of the draft SPD In preparing the draft SPD, informal consultation has been carried out with a range of internal officers within Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire District Councils. Once sections of the SPD had been drafted, these were emailed to technical officers within the Council for comment, with relevant changes then incorporated into the document. Internal workshops were also held with development management officers. These led to a number of changes or additions to help with navigation of the document, including the tables setting out the requirements for each local planning authority area contained within section 1 of the document. Additional guidance was also included in the contaminated land section related to the process that should be undertaken when unexpected contamination is encountered on development sites. A number of changes were also made to the document as a result of the committee process. Mostly these related to providing clarification, for example in the South Cambridgeshire guidance on air quality, additional text was added to clarify that while the Council wished to avoid the development of buildings with sealed fascia’s, this should not preclude the use of mechanical ventilation with heat recovery to supplement natural ventilation, where these systems are correctly specified, installed and maintained. Reference to autonomous vehicles was also added to the section of the document that considers the role of smart city technologies. Other changes included minor editorial amendments. 4. Consultation on the draft Greater Cambridge Sustainable Design and Construction SPD It is proposed that a public consultation takes place running from 15 July 2019 for to the 23 September 2019. The statutory minimum period for consultation on an SPD is six weeks, as this consultation period runs over the summer holidays it is proposed that it is extended to allow everyone an opportunity to respond. 5. Consultees The following stakeholders will be directly notified of the draft Greater Cambridge Sustainable Design and Construction SPD in accordance with the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 (as amended) via email, or by post where no email address is available. Also, where we have been advised by individuals that they wish to engage in the preparation of planning policy documents, they will be contacted. The stakeholders who will be contacted are set out in the Council’s adopted Statement of Community Involvement (July 2019). In summary these stakeholders include, but are not limited to: • Specific Consultation Bodies; • Local Parish Councils; • Local Members; • Cambridgeshire County Council; • Greater Cambridge Partnership; • Adjacent Local Authorities; • Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority; • Delivery partners, including landowners, developers, infrastructure providers, transport providers; • Community organisations; • Local businesses; 2 • General Consultation Bodies: including bodies which represent the interests of different diversity groups including based upon age, race, religion, disability; and organisations representing other interests e.g. environment, sports, heritage.

Of the representations received to the SPD, 48 were in support of the provisions in the SPD, 113 were in objection and 92 were comments on the SPD. Officers 3 are now in the process of responding to these representations and, where necessary, recommending amendments to the SPD All of the representations are available to be read in full on our online consultation system at: https://cambridge.jdi-consult.net/localplan/. The following sections set out the representations received to the consultation, provides a Council assessment of the issues and where necessary what proposed modifications to the SPD are required. Summary tables of representations received, Council response and proposed modifications. Section 1: Introduction (Object) Section 1: Introduction - Draft Greater Cambridge Sustainable Design and Construction SPD - July 2019 Agent: Carter Jonas (Mr Brian Flynn) [2200] Respondent: Hill Residential Limited (Colin Campbell) [7524] Received: 23/9/2019 via Email It is considered that the requirement for a separate Sustainability Statement will lead to duplicate information being provided with applications. For example, the Planning Statement, Design & Access Statement, Transport Assessment, Ecological Assessment, Energy 34129 Statement for example will already address sustainable design and construction matters. It is suggested that a revamped Sustainability Checklist could be used to ensure that all relevant matters have been addressed for a proposed development, and would direct the decision maker to relevant documents or parts of documents related to sustainability; the suggested amendments to the Sustainability Checklist are set out below. This approach would reduce the amount of material that Planning Officers and statutory consultees would need to review, and would be consistent with the National Planning Policy Guidance 2019 in terms of only providing information necessary for decision making. Councils Response: The requirement for the submission of a Sustainability Statement is specifically referenced in policies in both the Cambridge and the South Cambridgeshire local plans. Not all of the information required to be included in the Sustainability Statement will be covered in other documents, however where this is the case, it is considered appropriate for the Sustainability Statement to include a short summary of this information, with reference to further detail in associated documents. (Comment) Section 1: Introduction - Draft Greater Cambridge Sustainable Design and Construction SPD - July 2019 34128 Agent: Carter Jonas (Mr Brian Flynn) [2200] Respondent: Hill Residential Limited (Colin Campbell) [7524] Received: 23/9/2019 via Email 4 it is considered that Tables 1.2 and 1.3 provide a useful summary of the policy requirements relevant to sustainable design and construction. However, it would be helpful if these tables included an additional column that identified the relevant sustainability checklist criteria relevant to each topic. The purpose of this request is to provide all relevant information in one place. Councils Response: Comment noted –reference to the relevant section of the Sustainability Statement will be added to these tables. Change to the SPD: Add the relevant sustainability checklist criteria to Tables 1.2 and 1.3 (Object) Section 1: Introduction - Draft Greater Cambridge Sustainable Design and Construction SPD - July 2019 Agent: Carter Jonas (Mr Brian Flynn) [2200] Respondent: Hill Residential Limited (Colin Campbell) [7524] Received: 23/9/2019

You could be arrested, imprisoned & killed, simply for your beliefs. Christians had to meet in Horseheath 1100 Family Eucharist GR secret – but what if a stranger came? How could you tell if they were Christian or not? Who could you trust? March 2– Sunday before Lent To recognise one another, Christians used secret signs. One of these was the sign of the fish Castle Camps 1000 Holy Eucharist GR that could easily be scratched on a wall or drawn in the dust of the road. If the other person wasn’t a Christian they’d just think someone had been doodling. Weekly on Wednesdays The fish was used as a sign because, in Greek, the first letters of the words “Jesus Christ, Holy Eucharist 0930 GR God’s Son, Saviour” spell the Greek word for fish - ichthus. All Saints’, Castle Camps Today, real Christians are still difficult to recognise.

  • The Six Villages Newsletter
    THE SIX VILLAGES NEWSLETTER MARCH 2018 FROM REVD NIGEL DI CASTIGLIONE: Giving up or giving out? When I was a curate a parishioner told me on Ash b e in sp ir e d Wednesday ‘I’m giving up church for with Lent!’ I was so surprised I said Sl imming nothing. She did stay away from church World for the next 5 weeks but, thankfully she was back at Easter. Many of us have a TUESDAYS rather negative view of Lent. We try to Papworth Everard give up chocolate, drinking alcohol, Village Hall watching TV or whatever and try to 5.30 & 7.30pm feel virtuous for having done so. If Vicky: 07935795425 that is your current challenge don’t let me discourage you; Everyone is welcome! but for others – Real support, real food, real success! reading this in the middle of Lent – why don’t we think of taking something on slimmingworld.co.uk instead? 0344 897 8000 The Bible tells us the first Lent was when Jesus took on consciously following the leading and prompting of the Holy Spirit. Many of us might ask ”What does that look like?” One of the best descriptions I know is from a fellow church leader who speaks of us ‘taking note of the whispers of God’. I remember – may be 20+ years ago – thinking to myself I really must pop in and see Jack … then deciding I was too busy that day so no I would do that tomorrow. The following morning the phone rang – it was a Funeral Director to say: ‘Jack died during the night; will you take his funeral?’ I had heard the whisper of God but dismissed it as something no more than a random thought and could wait.

We are not part of government or any political party. We are accountable to Parliament through a committee of MPs chaired by the Speaker of the House of Commons. Our main role is to carry out electoral reviews of local authorities throughout England. Electoral review An electoral review examines and proposes new electoral arrangements for a local authority. A local authority’s electoral arrangements decide: How many councillors are needed How many wards or electoral divisions should there be, where are their boundaries and what should they be called How many councillors should represent each ward or division Why Cambridgeshire? We are conducting an electoral review of Cambridgeshire County Council as the Council currently has high levels of electoral inequality where some councillors represent many more or many fewer voters than others. This means that the value of each vote in county council elections varies depending on where you live in Cambridgeshire. Overall, 32% of divisions currently have a variance of greater than 10%. Our proposals for Cambridgeshire Cambridgeshire County Council currently has 69 councillors.

    CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY RAMBLING CLUB Lent Term 2010 Welcome back to the Rambling Club! We invite you to leave the city for a few hours this term, and enjoy the surrounding countryside with us. The pace of our walks is generally easy, as our main aim is to relax and appreciate the local scenery and villages, and we have tried to provide a mixture of walks of different lengths. We sometimes stop at a village pub en route, but you should bring a packed lunch and a drink anyway. Strong boots and waterproof clothing are also recommended. Your only expense is the bus or train fare (given below), plus our £1 annual membership fee. There is no need to sign up in advance to join any of this term’s walks (except for the Norfolk Madness and the March March March) – just turn up at the time and place given. Our meeting points are: Bus/Coach: At the corner of Drummer Street and Emmanuel Street. Train: In the main hall of Cambridge Railway Station. We also hold weekly pub meets at 8pm on Fridays at The Elm Tree (corner of Prospect Row and Eden Street, near the Grafton Centre). This is a good way to meet fellow walking enthusiasts, and everyone is welcome, whether you have been on a ramble or not! The first pub meet this term will be on Friday 15th January. We will also be organising a formal hall at Peterhouse (in addition to our normal termly meal out) during the mid-term blues; details will be announced nearer the time and the registration opened on one of the weekend walks.
